He Touched Me: Stars Recall Massages Gone Wrong

Massage requires enormous trust, particularly for celebrities. As a general rule, they tend to expose their famous bodies only to trained and highly recommended professionals. But when they travel or try out a new pair of hands, awkward situations do arise. I asked stars if they'd ever had a massage go south at events hosted by QVC, Max Azria, BCBG, Jenny Packham, Christian Siriano, Entertainment Weekly, the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue, and Orange Is the New Black.

Carmen Electra: "Yes, I was getting a massage by a man. When I get a massage, I usually keep my panties on. And he was really insistent that he couldn't do the proper massage with my panties on. I refused, and I was very uncomfortable because he was so pushy, but I stayed for the massage. And when he went to rub the back of my legs, he just went too far and right up on the ass, and I wasn't having it. Yeah, I usually have a woman massage me now."

Crystal Renn: "It's always weird when you go and get a massage in another country and they think that massaging your nipples is the norm. I would say that was a Thailand situation. No, thanks."

Jesse Metcalfe: "I got a very intense deep-tissue sports-medicine massage, and this masseuse's elbow was literally in my butt. I felt a little violated."

Penn Badgley: "One time, I had a body-scrub thing. It was in Mexico, and it was very awkward, with a guy who clearly did not want to touch me. And I did not want him touching me. It was a very one-and-only-time thing."

Kelly Rowland: "I went to a spa, and I remember them asking me to get completely naked, and it was the first time that I had my butt massaged. And I was like, This is way too invasive. I must admit, they weren't going crazy. But that was the first time my heinie was rubbed."

Rob Thomas:"Hmm, couples hot-stone massage in Hawaii. It was the way they went about it. They were sitting on me. They were on top of me with their knees and their elbows, right in the butt area. There was a chick sitting on me."

Jamie-Lynn Sigler:"I don't get massaged by men any longer. [The guy] just slipped. . . . And it felt icky later."

Giuliana Rancic: "I don't love massages in general, because sometimes it's just a little too close for comfort. It's a little too much when the towel goes up and you can feel the air. You're like, Why is there a breeze? Why is she looking at my butt?"

Brad Goreski: "A Thai massage I had in Thailand was very bizarre, kind of like riding on me a little bit. I felt a little bit violated."

Uzo Aduba(Orange Is the New Black): "After I ran the New York Marathon, I went to the spa to get a massage, and the woman who was rubbing me down said, "I love Orange Is the New Black." And I don't know if I want to hear that while I'm on the table. I don't have clothes on right now. 'Can you be my Dandelion?' " [laughs]

Sarah Rafferty:"There have been draping issues during the massage, where you think, There is no way that I'm draped right now, but I'm not going to open my eyes because I don't want to know. You can sort of feel like, I think my crack is showing. I'm feelin' a breeze."
